Our Mission

Forest Friends School serves kids ages 4-6 in the Coeur d'Alene,  Idaho area. We are located just 10 minutes South of downtown CDA on 5 beautiful acres of forest & field.

​

We believe in using the tools of nature and nurture to help children at this precious, foundational age grow.

​

We are now forming a waitlist for Fall 2021. Be sure to get on our contact list for updates!
